Art Déco Jungle Wall Sculpture by Myriam Hubert

About the Item

Art Déco jungle wall sculpture by Myriam Hubert. Dimensions: W 60 x H 83 cm. Materials: 'Glass marquetry' with mirror inlays. Intended for residential and hotel interiors, Myriam Hubert's wall compositions evoke stained glass with a new approach. The glass pieces are arranged according to a very precise design punctuated by mirror pieces. Thus sublimated, the material reveals a game of reflection that continuously varies depending on the angle of view. Myriam Hubert Nothing predestined her to work with glass. Born in 1987 in Compiègne (60), Myriam Hubert began her professional life working for humanitarian organizations in crisis contexts. Until she realizes that her destiny may lie elsewhere. During her last mission in Lebanon, she pushes the doors of a mosaic manufacturing workshop. The young woman observes the cutting techniques, fast and precise, and then clings to her desire to work on the art of carving the material. In a few months, these apprenticeships based on professional encounters and personal research put her on the job. Back in France, in 2013 she joined a collective workshop of craftsmen. An intense period of learning and achievement followed, during which glass became her material of choice. The years pass and she gradually abandons her initial project to devote herself to a line of jewelry, which allows her to produce extremely precise glass work. Her line of jewelry quickly met with success. She then thinks back to her aspirations as a mosaic artist and devotes herself to a strong artistic project: glass marquetry. "Especially since the jewel gave me a whole new look at glass". At this point in her career, everything becomes clear. In 2018, she presented her first mural compositions and received many enthusiastic feedbacks. In 2022, she participated in the Biennale Internationale Révélations at the Grand Palais, and the same year received Congratulations from the Jury of the national competition of Ateliers d'Art de France.
